EuroSpeleo Projects

From exploration expeditions to scientific conferences, from trainings to didactic or artistic projects, with more than 50 European projects granted since 2007, and 10 to 15 new requests every year, the FSE EuroSpeleo Projects have shown their great interest to bring together the European cavers from all over Europe to develop creative and dynamic new Speleological projects.

We would like to inform you that the EuroSpeleo Projects (ESP) funding rules have evolved in order to adapt gradually the funding grant amount to the project size and to open it to the projects that count only 4 Europan countries (against 5 minimum previously). The projects made with FEALC (Federación Espeleológica de América Latina y del Caribe) or Africa-Middle-East countries are still with a minimum of 3 countries.

The ESP Application Form is available here and the ESP Explanatory Notes here. The request must be sent to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. at least 4 months before the begining of the project. After that delay, the requests are not valid.

We wish to take this opportunity to warmly thank the three FSE Official Partners (Aventure Verticale gear, Korda's rope and Scurion Lamps) for all the support they bring to ESP projects each year (8 x 400 EUR of gear, 6 x 200 m of rope and 5 x Surion 900 lamp set, on top FSE's 400 EUR minimum financial grant).
